Re: COVID-19 Related Cancellations (by Pierre M.):

Here's what Marriott offer to owners that cancel their reservation:

For ownership week (not reserve with points), and with an arrival date on or BEFORE April 23, 2020

You will receive an Interval International week that will be deposited into your Interval International account within the next 10 days for future use. The Interval International week will have a reduced exchange rate of $99 and will expire on December 16, 2021. You will be able to check availability up to 120 days prior to your desired arrival date.

For ownership week (not reserve with points), and with an arrival date AFTER April 23, 2020

My Scheduled Arrival Is 60 Days or More from My Date of Cancellation

Your usage will be returned to your account and will be accessible for use upon completion of cancellation without penalty. If you don't plan to use your ownership week, you may also deposit your week with Interval International as a full deposit, usable for travel up to 24 months after the check-out date of your deposited week for the reservation you are canceling.

My Scheduled Arrival Is 59 Days to 14 Days from My Date of Cancellation

While cancellations are not permitted, your week can be deposited with Interval International for a Late Deposit. You will have two years from the check-out date of your deposited week to travel and can check availability up to 59 days before your desired arrival date.

My Scheduled Arrival Is Less Than 14 Days from My Date of Cancellation

While Cancellations are not permitted, you may be eligible for a Short Notice deposit through Interval International on a very limited basis. Please contact Owner Services to check availability. If accepted by Interval International, you will have two years from the check-out date of your deposited week to travel and can check availability up to 59 days before your desired arrival date. Please note that only full villas/units (no lock-offs) are eligible for requesting Short Notice deposit.

Also Renters need to understand that an Interval exchange doesn't worth much compare to the original Marriott reservation... hence why many owners don't want to do it. More not all owners own an Interval account.
